Allegorical Daniel Mignot Details Justice Mignot Daniel Ornament Pearl Pearls Pendant Strapwork Allegorical Figure Description

EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases Daniel Mignot's engraving, "Large Pendant, Justice Standing at Centre," created in the 16th century during the Baroque era. The allegorical figure of Justice stands proudly at the center, clad in a flowing robe, symbolizing the impartial application of the law. The intricate strapwork design adorning her garment and the ornate pearl necklace she wears are characteristic of the artistic style of the time. Justice is depicted as a woman, with a blindfold covering her eyes, representing the blind administration of justice, while she holds a pair of scales in one hand and a sword in the other. The scales symbolize the balance between good and evil, while the sword represents the power to enforce justice. Surrounding Justice are various animals, including birds, which are often used in allegorical art to represent different virtues and vices. The birds add an element of intrigue and visual interest to the design. This engraving is a testament to the artistic skill and creativity of the 16th century, showcasing the intricate detail and ornate design that characterized the Baroque era. The black and white, or monochrome, format adds to the timeless and classic feel of the piece. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is home to this magnificent work of art, which is a treasure of heritage and a reminder of the rich artistic history of Germany during the 16th century. The Large Pendant, Justice Standing at Centre, is a must-see for anyone interested in art, history, or the allegorical figures of the Baroque era.
